This is the 2nd straight week of heavy mountain snow.  Avalanches are a serious threat.  Grand snow totals hovering around 6-feet are commonplace in the Sangre De Cristo and San Juan Mountains.

  Prior to this and last week's snowstorms our statewide snowpack was sitting at 37% of average (poor).  Now, snowpack numbers are close to 100% of normal.  Two weeks; Back to Black.  Enjoy the steep and the deep!
